Chapter 300: Why are you so cruel?
Ye Ning was choked so hard she couldn't breathe. She tried desperately to break free from Ye Fei's grasp, but Ye Fei wouldn't give her a chance.
Several vines sprouted from Ye Ning's feet and eagerly climbed up her legs. Ye Ning was horrified to find that she was completely restricted in her movements by the vines!
"You...cough cough...what do you want to do!" Ye Ning's face turned red from being pinched, and she glared at the girl in front of her with resentment and anxiety.
"What are you doing?" Ye Fei sneered, slowly stuffing the spirit beast egg in her hand into her arms. "Doing what you just did to me."
"You can stay here and enjoy the feeling of your body being ravaged by lightning!"
Ye Fei patted Ye Ning's face, then retreated to a safe spot, crossed her arms, and waited for the show to begin.
"Roar—" The roar of the lightning-type spirit beast was mixed with raging anger, and the lightning surged. Wherever it passed, whether it was trees or boulders, they were all destroyed by the purple lightning!
Ye Ning was so frightened that her face turned pale. The vines on her body tightened so much that she had no strength to break free!
Sensing the location of the spirit beast egg, the spirit beast roared and charged at Ye Ning. With its swift momentum, lightning flashed, and Ye Ning was immediately filled with a fear that she was about to step into hell!
Just as the purple lightning was about to strike Ye Ning, a powerful force suddenly appeared in front of her. Before Ye Ning could react, the spirit beast cried out in pain, and the surrounding lightning disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Ye Fei coldly stared at the person standing in front of Ye Ning, dressed in a gray robe, with a thick beard on his resolute face—this was the Second Elder.
The lightning-type spirit beast was defeated by the Second Elder's fire-type spiritual energy and completely lost its fighting ability.
With a flick of her finger, the flames burned away all the vines on Ye Ning's body, and Ye Ning collapsed to the ground, clutching the spirit beast egg.
Having just survived a life-or-death ordeal, her legs were already weak with fear.
"Are you alright?" the Second Elder asked worriedly as he helped Ye Ning up.
Ye Ning shook her head tremblingly: "I'm fine... Thank you for saving my life, senior!"
The second elder asked, "Why are you bound by these vines? Who wants to harm you?"
Ye Ning trembled and turned to look at Ye Fei, who was standing gracefully against the big tree.
"...It's you?!" The Second Elder followed Ye Ning's gaze, his pupils shrinking slightly.
Ye Fei played with her long braid and gave the Second Elder a harmless smile.
"Did you bind her with vines?" The Second Elder stepped forward and questioned Ye Fei, "Do you know what you're doing? If that spirit beast's lightning were to strike this girl, she would either die or be seriously injured! Ye Fei, why are you so cruel?!"
Ye Fei glanced at Ye Ning lightly: "Why don't you ask her what happened in the beginning?"
The Second Elder turned to look at Ye Ning, whose body trembled and whose face showed a pitiful expression: "I... I tripped and fell while being chased by that spirit beast, and the spirit beast egg flew towards Third Sister's direction, so the spirit beast turned to attack Third Sister... Third Sister, I didn't mean to!"
Ye Fei coldly curled the corners of her lips: "You and your teammates were all being chased by spirit beasts, how come it was such a coincidence that only you were tripped up, and the spirit beast egg just happened to be thrown at me?"
Ye Ning's eyes reddened: "I...I don't know..."
The Second Elder looked at Ye Fei and Ye Ning: "You two are... sisters?"
"Yes, she is my third older sister."
Ye Ning wiped away imaginary tears from the corners of her eyes, looking at Ye Fei with an innocent expression: "Sister, I know you hate me, but this really wasn't my fault..."
